Although meant to be a historical movie, none of the events were fact-checked with any of the actual people involved. A complete farce, with terrible acting to boot. Simply an attempt to take a dig at the Republicans three weeks before... Full review

Although the real "W" sometimes comes off as a buffoon, and the movie shows that too, it also shows a side of "W" we rarely see. He is dipicted as intelligent, and not led around by the powerful in his administration.... Full review

Wright and Jones are fantastic actors that do them justice.....W." is rather odd in that sense.....he is a good representation of Bush.....But good impersonations don't necessarily make good performances.....Whether you agree with his policies or not, Wright's performance is deferential and powerful..... ...

Maverick director Oliver Stone taking on the much-derided former US President George W Bush, should have made for a marvellous movie.....Thandie Newton is way out of her comfort zone as Condoleezza Rice, putting in one of the most painfully bad performances I've ever seen.....Josh Brolin does a deft job of bringing Dubya to life.... ...

Bruce McGill's CIA chief George Tenet is the picture of put-upon frustration, a man belittled by Bush and Co. even as he repeatedly demands....Stacy Keach Ö is perfectly convincing as the preacher who prays with him as he sobers up....James Cromwell manages the nasal whine of Bush Sr.....Few filmmakers have to sell a subject as unpopular as the one Oliver Stone tackles with his latest cinematic.... ...
